The Royal Cornwall Polytechnic Society has had its home in our iconic building in the heart of Falmouth since 1836. We have been at the centre of many innovations and remain true to our original purpose - the pursuit of the inventive arts.

Why are we holding this auction?

We are in the process of setting up Falmouth's Community Pottery here at The Poly.

The pottery will offer studio space for 5 Potters, a kiln
firing service, community courses, and pottery tuition.We have the building,
kilns, wheels, equipment, pottery manager, but no electric supply so this final
£3,500 is to bring power to the pottery and help continue the Falmouth ceramics
tradition.

Please help us 'Power up the Pottery' through our auction

Online auction ends at midnight on the 27th April 2018

For further information about the auction or the Poly
Pottery contact: Jane Smith guild@thepoly.org

Descriptions of work are as accurate as possible and we
have listed artist and maker websites for you to discover more about the
artists.

The materials and processes I use are really important and relate back to growing up in the Midlands with the surrounding influence of industry and making.

A key element of my work emphasises the importance of balance and harmony, both aesthetically and physically and I enjoy combining the materials and techniques of glass and ceramics to create pieces that emphasise the importance of this balance.

My work is now heavily influenced by the dynamic landscape of Cornwall and my passion for the patterns formed in the natural and man-made environment.

Sue says:I have made a conscious decision to work on abstraction as it releases me from considerations of myth, history, politics, aesthetics, morality, religion or recognition. It is my belief that abstraction comes from the subconscious mind which is fuelled by the events and visions of the day.

Visual awareness is important but it is the dessicated fragments of light when it touches a surface - translucent, moving or static that is of interest, not how it forms an object. To think in this detached way opens new vistas of speculation and this is the reason I work experimentally with mixed media. The outcome of different materials can be unexpected and unpredictable. Experience with this manipulation, coupled with ones sensitivity which is gained over time, enables balanced decisions about the images.

Claire lives and works in Falmouth. She is a photographic artist inspired by Cornwall’s natural beauty and traditional industries.

This limited edition work is from a series called “Beach Figures” created using a photographic technique called Intentional Camera Movement (ICM) where the camera is intentionally moved as the shutter is released to create blurs, layers and textures in the final image. The image was captured at Poldhu on the Lizard in Cornwall in July 2017.

I make contemporary maritime art, combining the process of photo silkscreen with painting and found materials taken from the landscape, notably my walks along the Peryn river. The boats included in the constructed paintings often resemble traditional working boats as I try to connect some historical context with a more modern practice.

Dot completed her BA (Hons) at Falmouth College of Art in 1992. On a postgraduate trip to Cyprus in 1994 her interest came alive in the viewing of walls, textures and topographical spaces which left her with impressions of fading murals in sacred places such as churches and monasteries.

'Since then I have used painting and sculpture as a personal commentary on life' as the ravages of time and human conflict come together in her pieces of work..

A chance to own a piece of highly collectable, limited edition ceramics from Karl Owen (only 20 pieces in the collection.This piece is Ferric Chloride and was fired in heather and moss.

Karl's current work has been inspired by research he in the old clay pits around St Austell last year.After collecting china clay samples along with various plants, feathers, dried dead moss and manmade materials such as wire and waste materials found on walks in and around Blackpool pit he blended the China clay into a porcelain and produced a limited range of small thrown vessels on the wheel. They were then highly burnished to produce a glass like surface. Three were sagger fired using dried moss, grasses and heather. Giving beautiful subtle greys and blacks, with a pink and orange hues.Instagram: OWENMIZZENThe second batch were treated with Ferric Chloride and fired using heather,feathers and moss. Creating a surface which is unique each time, in reds and tones of grey and black. The shadows of the heather flowers, feather and moss are clear on the surfaces creating an interesting range of patterning.

Michel uses ancient timeless techniques to create functional vessels. They benefit from a purity of form giving them a sculptural quality.His own glazes are crafted using Feldspar, Cornish stone and ash from local trees, such as Chestnut, Ash, and Beech. By starving the kiln of oxygen, he draws minerals and oxides from inside the clay to the surface. There they react with the ash glaze, combining to act as prisms that filter and reflect light. This process ensures that each piece is unique.

Michel graduated from Falmouth University in 2002, then was an artist in residence at the Leach Pottery, St Ives. Following from this, he set up his own studio outside Helston.

Recent projects include co-designing and producing a new range of tableware for the Eden project. This was facilitated with the aid of a research grant from AIR (Academy of Innovation and Research).

His work has been shown in Paris (Gallery Art Présent), London (Gallery 43 Mayfair), Edinburgh and Taipei (International Teabowl Exhibition).

John was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers (RE) in 1995 and a Member of the Royal Birmingham Society of Artists (RBSA) in 1996.

John runs the John Howard Print Studio in Penryn and teaches at University College Falmouth.

John’s early work drew heavily on his experiences in industry, with a series of prints and drawings based on his work in Birmingham and Black Country foundries, evoking the dramatic lighting effects created by blast furnaces in the dark and sombre interiors.

His work then focused on architectural themes, exploring relationships between space, structure and light, both internal and external.

Since moving to Cornwall John has been able to develop his interest in discovering unusual and different perspectives on the natural environment. His particular expertise is in exploiting the qualities of light and experimenting with form and structure, both natural and man-made.

My Landscapes and seascapes are influenced by the local environment here in Cornwall. I like to go walking and make sketches in pencil and charcoal and sometimes in watercolour. I’m drawn to the unusual and challenging aspects of the Cornish landscape, the energy and dynamics it has. I take the sketches back to the studio to work from. I’ve recently been working on some large Indian ink paintings using the sketches as a guide/inspiration and I hope to develop these further into oil paintings.

I make pots. Pots to be used, pots to be looked at and most of all pots to be enjoyed.

A variety of different voices inform my work, from East to West, Korea to Marshall, Karatsu to Button. I hope that the combination of these influences and personal endeavour lead to pieces of work that have a subtle beauty that only clay can allow to happen.

I make a variety of forms, ranging from vases and lidded containers to drinking cups and pouring bowls. All work is stoneware and is thrown and turned on a slow turning kick wheel and fired to between 1280°C–1300°C in a gas kiln.

I make pots. Pots to be used, pots to be looked at and most of all pots to be enjoyed.

A variety of different voices inform my work, from East to West, Korea to Marshall, Karatsu to Button. I hope that the combination of these influences and personal endeavour lead to pieces of work that have a subtle beauty that only clay can allow to happen.

I make a variety of forms, ranging from vases and lidded containers to drinking cups and pouring bowls. All work is stoneware and is thrown and turned on a slow turning kick wheel and fired to between 1280°C–1300°C in a gas kiln.

Dot completed her BA (Hons) at Falmouth College of Art in 1992. On a postgraduate trip to Cyprus in 1994 her interest came alive in the viewing of walls, textures and topographical spaces which left her with impressions of fading murals in sacred places such as churches and monasteries.

'Since then I have used painting and sculpture as a personal commentary on life' as the ravages of time and human conflict come together in her pieces of work.

The materials and processes I use are really important and relate back to growing up in the Midlands with the surrounding influence of industry and making.

A key element of my work emphasises the importance of balance and harmony, both aesthetically and physically and I enjoy combining the materials and techniques of glass and ceramics to create pieces that emphasise the importance of this balance.

My work is now heavily influenced by the dynamic landscape of Cornwall and my passion for the patterns formed in the natural and man-made environment.

When bidding on an auction item, if you enter more than the minimum increment for an item then your bid will be used for proxy bidding. This is how it works:
1. You enter the absolute maximum that you are willing to bid for an item.
2. jumblebee places a bid on your behalf, using the minimum amount required to make you the highest bidder, i.e. current bid price plus bid increment OR the reserve price, if there is one and it can be covered by your proxy bid.
3. jumblebee continues to bid on your behalf, whenever you are outbid by another
member's bid, until your maximum bid is exceeded or the auction is won.
4. jumblebee will notify you by email if your maximum bid is outbid by another member and provided the auction is still running, you will then have a chance to enter a new
maximum bid if you wish.
For example:
The current bid on an auction item is £100. The minimum increment is £10. You enter a bid of £150 (your maximum bid).
Using your bid, but increasing only by the minimum increment, jumblebee sets the current bid to £110.
Another person bids £130 but they are immediately outbid by jumblebee bidding on your behalf and the current bid goes up to £140.
The auction finishes and you have won the auction item at a price of £140.
